Multiple File Upload

To build the functionality of Follow the steps below to model a multiple file upload the following steps have to be taken:

1. Define a connection name as described before.

2. Create an entity, e.g. 'File', in your model.
3. Create at least one attribute: File.Id. For convenience add also . This attribute is needed to store the id of the file, and without this attribute this functionality does not work. When handling files it is often practical to use a few other attributes such as File.Name, File.Type and File.Size. Create these attributes too.
4. Create an exposed flow.
5. Create a page which is put in the flow and is connected.

6. Create a container of type AQ_File_Upload and place it on the page with the following parameters:

   Parameter	Value	Comments
   Connection	<connection name>
   Persistence	Temporary
   Mode	Multiple files
   FileID	File.Id
   FileName	File.Name
   FileType	File.Type
   FileSize	File.Size

7. Create a container of type AQ_InstanceSelectorPlus.
   1. Let the containment be: File.Id, File.Name, File.Type, File.Size, all of them read-only
   2. Let the parameters be: Parameter 'entity' should be 'File'.
8. Let the instance selector container be the second container on the page.
9. The upload container is ready to use.
